Issue #10109 has been updated by Stefan Schulte.

The problem here is that we can map a resource title to different namevars 
(with the `title_pattern` method) but puppet has no way to do a backward 
mapping and looking at the diffs that you attached this seems to be the problem 
here.

Dan Bode did some work on this topic see the discussion 
[here](http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-dev/browse_thread/thread/82323b06a6de7703)
 and an experimental patchset which introduces a `namevar_join` method 
[here](https://patchwork.puppetlabs.com/patch/1178) but I guess none of it made 
it into core. There are still some other problems when it comes to multiple 
namevars (#5605),

Bug #10109: Composite keys cause Invalid parameter false error
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10109

Author: Brandon Turner
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: agent
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.4
Keywords: 
Branch: 


When using a type with more than one name var (composite keys), the agent 
outputs an error:

    err: Could not create resource file /var/lib/puppet/state/resources.txt: 
Invalid parameter false(false) at <filename>:<line>

This first appeared in version 2.7.4, most likely in commit:7a39ca72e64.  When 
multiple key attributes exist, `resource.name_var` is false.  The new 
`write_resource_file` method attempts to call `Puppet::Type#[]` with `false` 
which causes the Invalid parameter error.

The new resource list file should support types with composite keys.
